The HRC offers this look at Ryan’s record in the House of Representatives:

Ryan voted against hate crimes protections for LGBT people twice;

Ryan does not support marriage equality – in fact, he has twice supported the Federal Marriage Amendment that would ban loving, committed same-sex couples from marrying, and he supported a similar constitutional amendment in his home state of Wisconsin;

Ryan voted in favor of banning gay and lesbian couples from adopting in the nation’s capital; and

Ryan voted against repealing “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell.”

While on the campaign trail, Ryan has frequently spoken out against marriage equality for gay and lesbian couples.
